“Start small – celebrate even one youth participating!” says Bronwyn Nestegaard-Paul from Grace, Victoria, youth delegate at convention. Tarynn McKenzie from Church of the Cross, Victoria and Christopher Sandl from Good Shepherd, Victoria also offered advice on ministering to youth. Ideas included being willing to use more contemporary music and language; having a youth leader (volunteer is great) in the church; use technology; express interest and invitation.
The youth also reminded all delegates – “DON’T FORGET ABOUT C.L.A.Y. (Canadian Lutheran Anglican Youth gathering)!”
